If you plan to invest in a Senior Care business, you could consider Hallows Care. You will need to invest £118,000 to start your own Hallows Care business. At least £34,950 of this significant amount should come from your own personal investment. Due to the higher startup costs, this option is not recommended for first-time franchisees. If you can't afford the startup costs on your own, you could find out if you qualify for financial assistance. This brand also provides its franchisees with full training and support.

Another option to consider is Seniors Helping Seniors. The brand's network is made up of 300 franchisees, which promote its exposure. Good to know: you won't need any premises as you can work from home. Investing in Seniors Helping Seniors entitles you to all the guidance, training and support you need to run your business effectively. And if you can't afford the startup costs on your own, you may be eligible for financial aid.

Finally, SylvianCare is an interesting investment opportunity in the Senior Care sector. There are three outlets open so far, and the network is expanding. This business requires an initial investment of £62,500. If you intend to get a loan to cover startup costs, you should anticipate adding a personal investment of 30 to 50% of the total investment as a general rule. The minimal personal investment to open a SylvianCare business is £30,000. It is thus less appropriate for new investors. If you feel uncertain about starting your own business, you may feel more secure in taking on a franchise. SylvianCare can support you with comprehensive training and assistance to help your business reach its full potential. What's more, financial support is available for eligible franchisees. See eligibility details on our website.
